**help*** Motor Doing Strange Things....xr6 Turbo Ba

[rotorboyazza]

The last owner had it from new(2003,9 years),as a work vehicle only had it serviced and maintained no retune no mods except for the exhaust, ute has done 205000Km's I have now replaced TPS, cleaned out throttle body and replace the hose off that (big split all the way around it),coil packs(all but 1 had crackes) and spark plugs.Checked the 1 way valve off the cam cover and cleaned that out,replaced the BOV vac hose too (was to short) Over here in NZ a retune is going to cost me $1195+gst($1375NZ$),$309+gst for a 2nd hand cat off a vehicle done over 100000km's, which is money I done have to waste on this ute as it was meant to be just a run around,to date it owes me $11800 (NZ$) and yes I am trying to do fix it on the cheap,so any other ideas?

Sorry, all I have done to it is lowered it and fitted the head light covers and tinted windows, only cosmetic mods, no engine mods....

Replace the cat and see how you go.

have you replaced the fuel pump ? maybe the fuel pressure regualtor is stuffed.

No I haven't even thought of a fuel pump, but the surge only seems to happen when your foot is lightly on the accel pedal between 20-40km

Today the ute goes in for a diagnostic scam, hopefully they find the problem....

Hey where did you get your headlight covers? Are they street legal?

Ute has the following:

Fault Code # P1340, Camshaft Position Sensor, P1381 and P1386 Camshaft Position Timing Over Advanced on both Cams.

Now why couldn't Ford have picked this up back in May????
